Hi all,
I'm in Australia and my 68 Charger is converted to right hand drive. It was a shell with a bunch of parts when I got it. I have no ashtray in the dash. The conversion was done well but not completed. I expect that if I find an original ashtray it should fit because the center of the dash is as original, and so too are the sides, although they have been swapped. But it got me thinking. These ashtrays are rare. And expensive. Plus, I don't smoke. And even if I did, I wouldn't smoke in this car. I wondered if anyone out there has come up with interesting ways to utilize this dash space. It could be a useful storage space or even a spot for a backup camera screen. I though about infotainment but decided that I couldn't do that to this beautiful car. It needs an original radio (perhaps with Bluetooth) in it. Anyway, ideas would be very gratefully received please folks. Thanks in advance!
